I've been home two weeks now. It passes so quickly. Last Friday my bike was recovered to the BMW dealership to assess the clutch. It needs replacing. What a sad day for a fantastic motorcycle. I got seriously saddle sore with this journey, but I miss Elsa hugely. I am waiting to find out whether BMW will make a good will gesture. I didn't extend the two year warranty, but there is a known manufacturing fault on this new Boxer. I await their decision before writing further on the subject.
Personally I have slept and eaten a lot. My body weight is back up to where it should be, and my sleeping patterns and energy levels are back to normal. I have tight tendons in my legs so I guess I'm due to put effort into walks to get my flexibility back. It was a hell of a long time in the saddle !
Contact with friends from the trip, and those of you who have followed me, continues to delight. Thank you.
